Established in 1988, Women’s Agenda Assemblies held across the state started a gathering of women in North Carolina communities. The participants come together in their county to learn more about public policy issues impacting women and their children at the local level. Facilitators and presenters provide background information and teach skills allowing women to have a voice. Priorities from the discussion are channeled to NC Women United and provide key input for the NC Women United Report Card, which grades North Carolina Legislators on how well they perform in supporting women in the state.
